Refuelling (02_01, 02_02, 02_03)
Fill up the fuel tank «A» with unleaded petrol with min number of octanes of 95. Whenthe fuel level inside the fuel tank reaches a minimum, a low-fuel warning light will lightup on the dashboard. Refill the oil tank, «B», with the recommended oil. A low-oil levelwarning light, on the dashboard, will come on when the oil level reaches a mini-mum.The top-up should be carried out as soon as the warning light goes on or, by allmeans, before covering 150 km. The vehicle is fitted with an electronic system whichperforms a check on the low-fuel and oil warning lights. As the key is turned onto "ON"the low-oil warning light goes on for a few seconds, indicating it is working correctly;a similar check is run by the digital display at the same time. A failed check mayindicate a fault within the dashboard. If this is the case, please contact an AuthorisedPiaggio Service Station. In the event of running out of oil, even if this has not dam-aged the engine, it will still be necessary to contact an Authorised Piaggio ServiceStation to bleed the oil pump. If this is the case, fill the fuel tank with at least 3 litresof petrol-oil mixture with 2% oil. Once this has been exhausted, revert to standard,petrol fill-ups.

CAUTION
DO NOT SWITCH OFF THE ENGINE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING. UN-BURNED FUEL COULD ENTER THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND BURN,CAUSING IT TO OVERHEAT AND POSSIBLY DESTROYING IT.
Automatic transmission
To ensure simple, pleasurable riding, the vehicle is equipped with automatic trans-mission with regulator and centrifugal clutch. The system is designed to give the bestpossible performance in terms of both acceleration and consumption, on level groundand uphill, thanks to the adjustments made to engine speed and transmitted torque.If you have to stop on an uphill slope (traffic lights, traffic jam, etc.) only use the braketo keep the vehicle still, leaving the motor running at idling speed. Using the motor tokeep the vehicle still can cause the clutch to overheat. This problem is due to thefriction of the clutch parts on the clutch bell. It is therefore recommended to avoidconditions of prolonged clutch slippage leading to clutch overheating (for example, aswell as the situation described above, riding uphill fully laden on steep slopes or start-ing off on slopes greater than 25%, etc.):
1. Do not continue riding in such conditions.
2. Let the clutch cool down with the motor at idling speed for a few minutes.
Safe driving
WARNING
SOME SIMPLE TIPS ARE PROVIDED BELOW THAT WILL ENABLE YOU TO USEYOUR SCOOTER ON A DAILY BASIS IN GREATER SAFETY AND WITH MOREPEACE OF MIND.
24
2 U
se
<
Your ability and your knowledge of the vehicle form the basis of safe riding. We rec-ommend trying out the vehicle in traffic-free zones to get to know your vehiclecompletely.ALWAYS DRIVE WITHIN YOUR LIMITS
1. Before riding off, remember to put on your helmet and fasten it correctly.
2. Reduce speed and ride cautiously on uneven roads.
3. Remember that after riding on a long stretch of wet road without using the brakes,the braking effect is initially lower. Given these conditions, it is a good idea to operatethe brakes from time to time.
4. Do not brake hard on a wet surface, on dirt tracks or on any slippery road surface.
5. If you have to brake, use both brakes in order to divide the braking action betweenboth wheels.
6. Avoid starting off by mounting the scooter while it is still resting on its stand. In anycase, the rear wheel should not be turning when in comes into contact with the ground,in order to avoid abrupt departures.
7. If the vehicle is used on roads covered with sand, mud, snow mixed with salt, etc.,clean the brake disc frequently with mild detergent in order to prevent abrasive sub-stances from building up within the holes, which can result in early wear of the brakepads.
8. Any elaboration that modifies the vehicle's performances, such as tampering withoriginal structural parts is strictly forbidden by law, and renders the vehicle not con-forming to the approved type and therefor dangerous to ride.

The engine cooling system is of the liquid type; the cooling circuit contains 0.50 litresof coolant consisting of a 50% mixture of demineralised water and anti-icing solutioncontaining glycol-ethylene and corrosion inhibitors. The recommended coolant is dis-tributed pre-mixed, ready for use. The system is fitted with temperature indicator forthe coolant. In order to guarantee good engine performances, in normal conditions,the indicator must not go beyond the 7th/8th segment shown on the digital dashboard.As the temperature indicator reaches the 10th bar, the display will start blinking; if thisis the case, shut down the engine immediately, let it cool down and then check thecoolant level. If this is within the limits, contact an Authorised Piaggio Service Sta-tion so that the cause of the fault may be found. The coolant level check must becarried out, with the engine cold, after the first 1,000 Km and every 5,000 Km there-after. Please proceed as follows:a) Rest the vehicle on its centre stand and on a horizontal surface.b) Remove the expansion tank cap «A» by turning it anticlockwise.The coolant level may be checked through the inspection hole located on the L.H.S.of the leg-shield. If the coolant level is found to be close to the Min mark, top it up withthe engine cold. Frequent top-ups, or a dry expansion tank, are most likely due to aleakage in the circuit. If this is the case, contact an Authorised Piaggio Service Sta-tion so that a thorough inspection of the circuit may be carried out. The coolant must

Checking the brake oil level (03_11, 03_12)
The brake fluid reservoir is equipped with a sight glass «A». The sight glass showsthe level in the reservoir.With sight glass «A» completely covered with fluid, the level is above Min. If the leveldrops, even slightly, the fluid level is considered Min. If no fluid is visible through thesight glass, the fluid level is below Minimum. The brake fluid level may fall due to wearof the brake pads. In this case take the scooter to an Authorized Piaggio ServiceCenter for a general check-up of the brakes. If you need to top up the level follow thesteps listed below. Remove the front handlebar cover, loosen the 2 screws, «B», liftthe brake reservoir cover, «C», and top up the fluid level as necessary (the level mustalways remain above the minimum mark).
Check the level with the reservoir in a horizontal position, i.e. with the handlebarsstraight and the motorscooter perfectly level.
CAUTION
TOP UPS SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT WITH DOT 4 CLASSIFIED BRAKEFLUID.
CAUTION
THE BRAKING CIRCUIT FLUID IS HIGHLY CORROSIVE. THEREFORE, WHENTOPPING IT UP, AVOID LETTING IT COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE PAINTEDPARTS OF THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKING CIRCUIT FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC,WHICH MEANS THAT IT ABSORBS MOISTURE FROM THE SURROUNDING AIR.IF MOISTURE CONTAINED IN THE BRAKE FLUID EXCEEDS A CERTAIN VALUE,THIS WILL RESULT IN INEFFICIENT BRAKING.

Front and rear disc brake (03_29, 03_30)
The brake disc and pad wear is automatically compensated, therefore it has no effecton the functioning of the front and rear brakes. For this reason it is not necessary toadjust the brakes. An excessively elastic brake lever stroke may indicate the presenceof air in the braking circuit or an irregular brake operation. In this case, mainly due tothe importance of brakes to guarantee safe riding conditions, the vehicle should betaken to an Authorised Piaggio-Gilera Service Centre in order to be checked.
CAUTION
THE BRAKING ACTION SHOULD BEGIN AFTER ABOUT 1/3 OF THE BRAKELEVER STROKE.
CHECK THE BRAKE PADS REGULARLY (EVERY 5000 KM). IF THE THICKNESSOF ONE OR BOTH PADS IS IN THE REGION OF 1.5 MM, BOTH PADS MUST BECHANGED. THIS OPERATION MUST BE CARRIED OUT AT AN AUTHORISEDPIAGGIO-GILERA SERVICE CENTRE. AFTER REPLACING THE BRAKE PADSDO NOT USE THE VEHICLE BEFORE HAVING USED THE BRAKE LEVER SEV-ERAL TIMES IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE PADS TO SETTLE AND THE LEVERSTROKE TO BE SET TO THE CORRECT POSITION.

Puncture (03_31)
The vehicle is equipped with Tubeless tyres. When there is a puncture, Tubeless tyres-unlike balloon tyres- go flat very slowly. This offers greater riding safety. A tyre thatgoes flat very slowly can be repaired with an "INFLATE AND REPAIR" spray. Tyresshould be later fully repaired at an Authorised Piaggio-Gilera Service Centre.
03_32
Periods of inactivity (03_32)
We recommend carrying out the following operations:1. General cleaning of the vehicle.
2. With the engine off and the piston at the bottom dead centre position, remove thespark plug, and pour 1÷ 2 cm³ of recommended oil through its opening. Press theengine start pedal 3 or 4 times letting the engine perform a few revolutions slowly,then replace the spark plug.
3. Drain off all the vehicle fuel; spread antirust grease on the unpainted metal parts;keep the wheels off the ground, by resting the chassis on two wooden wedges.
4. For the battery, follow the procedures described in the «Battery» section.
5. Drain the petrol from the carburettor float chamber through the bleed cap.

for bodywork soaked in lots of water and "shampoo" (2-4% of car shampoo in water).Then rinse abundantly with water, and dry with a shammy cloth. For the motor exterioruse petroleum, a brush and clean rags. Petroleum can damage paintwork. Rememberthat any polishing with silicon wax must always be preceded by washing.
CAUTION
DETERGENTS POLLUTE WATER. THEREFORE THE VEHICLE SHOULD BEWASHED IN AN AREA EQUIPPED FOR THE COLLECTION AND PURIFICATIONOF THE LIQUIDS USED.
WARNING
NEVER WASH THE VEHICLE UNDER DIRECT SUNLIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN SUM-MER WHEN THE BODYWORK IS STILL HOT, AS THE CAR SHAMPOO MAY DRYBEFORE BEING RINSED OFF, AND COULD DAMAGE THE PAINTWORK. NEVERUSE RAGS SOAKED IN PETROL OR DIESEL OIL TO CLEAN THE PAINTED ORPLASTIC SURFACES, TO PREVENT THEM LOSING THEIR SHINE AND ME-CHANICAL CHARACTERISTICS.
WARNING
WHEN WASHING THE ENGINE WITH A HIGH-PRESSURE WATER JET:
• ONLY USE FAN SPRAY JETS.• DO NOT PLACE THE WATER JET NOZZLE CLOSER THAN 60 CM.• DO NOT USE WATER AT TEMPERATURES OVER 40° C.• DO NOT DIRECT THE JETS DIRECTLY TO CARBURETTOR, WIRING, SLOTDIFFUSER ON THE TRANSMISSION COVER AND SCROLL COVER.
